Among the many people I was flattered to see at our book launch last week were Os Gemeos (Gustavo and Otavio).
After passing books back and forth they handed me a flier to their up coming show:
Too Far Too Close
June 28, 2008 — August 09, 2008
Deitch Projects
18 Wooster Street
New York, NY 10013
Os Gemeos (pronounced “ose zhe’-mee-ose.") are two artists from Sao Paulo, Brazil. Gustavo and Otavio Pandolfo
were born in 1974, identical twin brothers whose pseudonym, Os Gemeos, translates to “the twins” in Portuguese.
In addition to their incredible works created on the streets of Sao Paulo, the twins have in recent years exhibited their
art in museums all over the world.
In Too Far Too Close, they will be transforming the gallery into a fantastical cityscape with houses, doors, and passageways,
all brought to life with their signature style of imagery. Building upon a group of artworks created for the Museum Het Domein
in the Netherlands, this show features new paintings, sculpture, and installation bringing all the magical moments of their work
together in one tightly knit dream world of an exhibition.
